Work with All Panels

The panel’s member list has two main functions: 1) to drive the scan of the DDS and update of the dictionary in option 3, and 2) to present a list of panels to the translator to work with in option 4.

It may be helpful to maintain two lists; for instance, one of newly updated panels and one of all panels. This allows the administrator to only scan and update the dictionary for the new panels, but to present either this list or a list of all panels to the translator.

To set this up, do the following:

  1. Select the option Work with All Panels to set the TRNDEVLST data area to newmbrs
  2. View the System Parameters panel and check the change has been made correctly
  3. Build the member list, filter it as required, and then submit the scan/update
  4. Select the option Work with New Panels to set the TRNDEVLST data area to allmbrs
  5. Re-build the member list to include all translated or new panels

The translator can now start translating, and can select via these two options whether the list of panels initially displayed is the full list or just those changed.
